Hermosa como la estrella
De la alborada de mayo
Fue en Méjico hará dos siglos
Doña Ana María de Castro.

Ninguna logró excederle
En la elegancia y el garbo
Ni en los muchos atractivos
De su afable y fino trato.

Sus maneras insinuantes,
Su genio jovial y franco,
Su lenguaje clara muestra
De su instrucción y su rango:

Su talle esbelto y flexible,
Sus ojos como dos astros
Y las riquísimas joyas,
Con que esmaltó sus encantos.

La hicieron en todo tiempo
La más bella en el teatro,
La mejor por sus hechizos,
La primera en los aplausos.

Los atronadores vivas,
Los gritos del entusiasmo
Siempre oyó, noche por noche,
Al pisar el escenario.

En canciones, en comedias,
En sacramentales autos,
Ninguna le excedió en gracia,
Ni le disputó los lauros.

Doña Ana entre bastidores
Era de orgullo tan alto,
Que a todos sus compañeros
Trató como a sus lacayos.

Las maliciosas hablillas,
Los terribles comentarios,
Los epigramas agudos
Y los rumores más falsos,

Siempre tuvieron origen
Según el vulgo, en su cuarto,
Centro fijo en cada noche
De los jóvenes más guapos.

Allí en torno de una mesa
Se charlaba sin descanso,
Sin escrúpulos ni coto
De lo bueno y de lo malo.

Si la gazmoña chicuela
Del marqués, ama a Fulano,
Y si éste le guiña el ojo
Escondido en algún palco;

Si la esposa de un marino
Mira con afán extraño
Al alabardero Azunza
Que de algún noble está al lado;

Si el Virrey fijó sus ojos
Con interés en el patio,
Como en busca de un amigo
Que subiera a acompañarlo,

Sobre el último alboroto
De tal calle y de tal barrio
Con alguaciles, corchetes
Mujerzuelas y soldados

La actriz, risueña y festiva
Oyendo tales relatos,
A todos daba respuestas
Como experta en cada caso.

Algunos por conquistarse
Su pasión más que su agrado,
Sin lograr sus esperanzas
Grandes sumas se gastaron;

Otros con menos fortuna
Sólo anhelaban su trato
Viviendo como satélites
En derredor de aquel astro.

Ana, radiante de gloria,
Miraba con desenfado
A los opulentos nobles
Que eclipsara con su encanto.

Y en la sociedad más alta
Censuraban su descaro
Creyéndola una perdida,
Foco de vicios y escándalos.

Mas no hay crónica que ponga
Tan duros juicios en claro,
Ni nos diga que a ninguno
Se rindió por los regalos.

Ella protegió conquistas
De sus amigos más francos,
Y quizá empujó al abismo
A los galanes incautos.

Astuta e inteligente
Guardó en su amor tal recato
Que tan valioso secreto
No han descubierto los años.

Se habla de un Virrey
Que estuvo de doña Ana enamorado,
Mas la historia no lo afirma
Ni puedo yo asegurarlo.

Mujer hermosa y ardiente,
De genio y en el teatro,
Por la calumnia y la envidia
Tuvo medidos sus pasos.
Por sabias disposiciones
Dictadas con gran acierto
Las actrices habitaban
Muy cerca del coliseo.

Este se alzó por entonces
Entre el callejón estrecho
Que del Espíritu Santo
Llamamos en nuestro tiempo,

Y la calle de la Acequia,
En los solares extensos
Que hoy las gentes denominan
Calle del Coliseo Viejo.

Y cerca, en vecina calle,
Que por tener un colegio
Destinado a las doncellas
«De las niñas» llama el pueblo,

Las artistas del teatro
Buscaron sus aposentos,
Y de las Damas llamóse
A tal motivo aludiendo.

Una noche gran tumulto
Turbó del barrio el sosiego,
A los más graves vecinos
Levantando de sus lechos;

Los jóvenes elegantes
Formando corrillo inmenso,
Seguidos de gente alegre
Y poco amiga del sueño,

A la puerta de una casa
Su carrera detuvieron
Acompañando sus trovas
Con sonoros instrumentos

-«Serenata a la de Castro»,
Dijo al mirarlos un viejo.
-¿Y por qué así la celebran?
Preguntó un mozo indiscreto.

-¡Cómo por qué! dijo alguno;
El Virrey loco se ha vuelto
Y prendado de la dama
Ordena tales festejos.

-¿El Virrey?-Así lo dicen.
-¡El Virrey! -Ni más ni menos;
Y allí cantan edecanes,
Corchetes y alabarderos.
-¿Será posible ?
-Miradlos...
-¡Qué locuras!
-Y ¡qué tiempos!
-Los oidores están sordos.
-Al menos están durmiendo.
-¡Turbar en tan altas horas
La soledad y el silencio!
¡Y alarmar a los que viven
Con recato en los conventos!

-¡Y por una mujerzuela!
-¡Una farsanta que ha puesto,
Como a Job, a tantos ricos
Que están limosna pidiendo!

-¿Y la Inquisición? -Se calla.
-¿Y la mitra? -¿Y el Gobierno?
-Doña Ana domina a todos
Con su horrible desenfreno.

-¿Y es hermosa? -Cual ninguna.
-¿Joven? -¡Y de gran talento!
-Y con dos ojos que vierten
Las llamas del mismo infierno.

-Con razón con sus hechizos
Vuelve locos a los viejos.
-El Virrey no es un anciano.
-Ni tampoco un arrapiezo.

-Pero escuchad lo que dicen
Cantando esos bullangueros.
-Es el descaro más grande
Tal cosa decir en verso.

Y al compás de la guitarra
Vibraba claro el acento
De un doncel que así decía
En obscura capa envuelto:

-«¡Sal a tu balcón, señora,
Que por mirarte me muero,
Piensa en que por ver tus gracias
El trono y la corte dejo».

-Más claro no canta un gallo.
-Y todos lo estáis oyendo.
El Virrey deja su trono
Por buscar a la... ¡Silencio!

-¡Cómo está la Nueva España!
-¡Pobre colonia! -Me atrevo
A decir que no se ha visto
Cosa igual en todo el reino.

Y los del corro cantaban,
Y al fin todos aplaudieron
Al mirar que la de Castro
A su balcón salió luego.

-«¡Vivan la luz y la gracia,
La sandunga y el salero!»
-«Ya asomó el sol en oriente».
-«¡Ya el alba tiñó los cielos!»

Y doña Ana agradecida
Buscando a todos un premio,
Llevó la mano a los labios
Y al grupo le arrojó un beso.

Creció el escándalo entonces
Rayó en locura el contento
Y volaron por los aires
Las capas y los sombreros,

Cerró su balcón la dama,
Apagáronse los ecos,
Dispersáronse las gentes
Y todo quedó en silencio
Con grande asombro se supo,
Trascurridas dos semanas
Desde aquella escandalosa
Aunque alegre serenata,

Que las glorias de la escena,
Los laureles de la fama,
El brillo y los oropeles
De la carrera dramática,

Por inexplicable cambio,
Por repentina mudanza,
Sin reserva y sin esfuerzo
Todo dejaba doña Ana.

Y alguno de los que saben
Cuanto en los hogares pasa
Y que exploran con cautela
Los secretos de las almas,

Dijo a todos los amigos
De artista tan celebrada
Que un sermón del Viernes Santo
Era de todo la causa.

El padre Matías Conchoso,
Cuya elocuente palabra
Los más duros corazones
Convirtiera en cera blanda,

Al ver entre su auditorio
A tan arrogante dama
Atrayéndose en el templo
De los hombres las miradas,

Habló de lo falso y breves
Que son las glorias mundanas;
De los mortales pecados
De los que viven en farsas;

De los escándalos graves
Que a la sociedad alarma
Cuando una actriz sin recato
Incautos pechos inflama;

Y con tan vivos colores
Pintó la muerte y sus ansias
Y al infierno perdurable
Que al pecador se prepara;

Que la de Castro, temblando,
Cayó al punto desmayada
Con el hechicero rostro
Bañado en ardientes lágrimas.

Sacáronla de aquel templo,
Condujéronla a su casa,
Y temiendo que muriera
Fueron a sacramentarla.

Cuando cesaron sus males,
Y estuvo en su juicio y sana,
En señal de penitencia
Resolvió dejar las tablas;

Y vendió trajes y joyas;
Y las sumas que dejaran
Se las entregó a la Iglesia
De su nuevo voto en aras.

Entró después de novicia
Y su conducta sin mancha
Y su piedad y su empeño
Por vivir estando en gracia,

Abreviaron sus afanes,
La dieron consuelo y calma
Y tomó el hábito y nunca
El mundo volvió a mirarla.

Fueron tales sus virtudes
Y sus hechos de enclaustrada,
Que cuentan los que lo saben
Que murió en olor de santa.

Por muchos años miróse
La celda pequeña y blanca
Que ocupó en Regina Coeli
La memorable doña Ana.

Y aun se conservan los muros
De la antigua estrecha casa
En que vivió aquella artista
En la «Calle de las Damas».

Pasó, dejando animosa
Riqueza, aplausos y fama,
Del escenario a la celda
¡Por la salvación del alma!
¿Qué o quién me guiaba? No buscaba a nadie, buscaba todo y a todos:
    vegetación de cúpulas azules y campanarios blancos, muros color de sangre seca, arquitecturas:
    festín de formas, danza petrificada bajo las nubes que se hacen y se deshacen y no acaban de hacerse, siempre en tránsito hacia su forma venidera,
    piedras ocres tatuadas por un astro colérico, piedras lavadas por el agua de la luna;
    los parques y las plazuelas, las graves poblaciones de álamos cantantes y lacónicos olmos, niños y gorriones y cenzontles,
    los corros de ancianos, ahuehuetes cuchicheantes, y los otros, apeñuscados en los bancos, costales de huesos, tiritando bajo el gran sol del altiplano, patena incandescente;
    calles que no se acaban nunca, calles caminadas como se lee un libro o se recorre un cuerpo;
    patios mínimos, con madreselvas y geranios generosos colgando de los barandales, ropa tendida, fantasma inocuo que el viento echa a volar entre las verdes interjecciones del loro de ojo sulfúreo y, de pronto, un delgado chorro de luz: el canto del canario;
    los figones celeste y las cantinas solferino, el olor del aserrín sobre el piso de ladrillo, el mostrador espejeante, equívoco altar en donde los genios de insidiosos poderes duermen encerrados en botellas multicolores;
    la carpa, el ventrílocuo y sus muñecos procaces, la bailarina anémica, la tiple jamona, el galán carrasposo;
    la feria y los puestos de fritangas donde hierofantas de ojos canela celebran, entre brasas y sahumerios, las nupcias de las substancias y la transfiguración de los olores y los sabores mientras destazan carnes, espolvorean sal y queso cándido sobre nopales verdeantes, asperjan lechugas donadoras del sueño sosegado, muelen maíz solar, bendicen manojos de chiles tornasoles;
    las frutas y los dulces, montones dorados de mandarinas y tejocotes, plátanos áureos, tunas sangrientas, ocres colinas de nueces y cacahuetes, volcanes de azúcar, torreones de alegrías, pirámides transparentes de biznagas, cocadas, diminuta orografía de las dulzuras terrestres, el campamento militar de las cañas, las jícamas blancas arrebujadas en túnicas color de tierra, las limas y los limonones: frescura súbita de risas de mujeres que se bañan en un río verde;
    las guirnaldas de papel y las banderitas tricolores, arcoiris de juguetería, las estampas de la Guadalupe y las de los santos, los mártires, los héroes, los campeones, las estrellas;
    el enorme cartel del próximo estreno y la ancha sonrisa, bahía extática, de la actriz en cueros y redonda como la luna que rueda por las azoteas, se desliza entre las sábanas y enciende las visiones rijosas;
    las tropillas y vacadas de adolescentes, palomas y cuervos, las tribus dominicales, los náufragos solitarios y los viejos y viejas, ramas desgajadas del árbol del siglo;
    la musiquita rechinante de los cabellitos, la musiquita que da vueltas y vueltas en el cráneo como un verso incompleto en busca de una rima;
    y al cruzar la calle, sin razón, porque sí, como un golpe de mar o el ondear súbito de un campo de maíz, como el sol que rompe entre nubarrones: la alegría, el surtidor de la dicha instantánea, ¡ah, estar vivo, desgranar la granada de esta hora y comerla grano a grano!!;
    el atardecer como una barca que se aleja y no acaba de perderse en el horizonte indeciso;
    la luz anclada en el atrio del templo y el lento oleaje de la hora vencida puliendo cada piedra, cada arista, cada pensamiento hasta que todo no es sino una transparencia insensiblemente disipada;
    la vieja cicatriz que, sin aviso, se abre, la gota que taladra, el surco quemado que deja el tiempo en la memoria, el tiempo sin cara: presentimiento de vómito y caída, el tiempo que ha ido y regresa, el tiempo que nunca se ha ido y está aquí desde el principio, el par de ojos agazapados en un rincón del ser: la seña de nacimiento;
    el rápido desplome de la noche que borra las caras y las casas, la tinta negra de donde salen las trompas y los colmillos, el tentáculo y el dardo, la ventosa y la naceta, el rosario de las cacofonías;
    la noche poblada cuchicheos y allá lejos un rumor de voces de mujeres, vagos follajes movidos por el viento;
    la luz brusca de los faros del auto sobre la pared afrentada, la luz navajazo, la luz escupitajo, la reliquia escupida;
    el rostro terrible de la vieja al cerrar la ventana santiguándose, el ladrido del alma en pena del perro en el callejón como una herida que se encona;
    las parejas en las bancas de los parques o de pie en los repliegues de los quicios, los cuatro brazos anudados, árboles incandescentes sobre los que reposa la noche,
    las parejas, bosques de febriles columnas envueltas por la resiración del animal deseante de mil ojos y mil manos y una sola imagen clavad en la frente,
    las quietas parejas que avanzan sin moverse con los ojos cerrados y caen interminablemente en sí mismas;
    el vértigo inmóvil del adolescente desenterrado que rompe por mi frente mientras escribo
    y camina de nuevo, multisolo en su soledumbre, por calles y plazas desmoronadas apenas las digo
    y se pierde de nuevo en busca de todo y de todos, de nada y de nadie

¿Qué hay qué hacer para poder vivir?
¿Qué pruebas hay que pasar para poder ser feliz?

Mi corazón que anhela no pide nada más que ir,
pero mi mente, mis brazos, mis piernas, mi nariz
toda yo sé que no podré

Lo único que pido es poder reír,
sin tener que convertirme en actriz

Mi corazón que anhela no quiere dormir,
pero mis dedos, mis pestañas, mi pecho, mi matriz
toda yo sé que no pasará

No pienso más en herir
y ya me cansé de ser infeliz

Mi corazón que anhela está cansado de fingir,
igual que mi pelo, mis uñas, mis venas, mi cicatriz
y toda yo sé que es inútil

Mi corazón que anhela todavía piensa en huir,
y toda yo, no me quiero rendir.

Whether one's nationality is Romanian, Finnish, British or Croatian
Lost people will eat food outside their region &
El viento que entra en la cocina sacude el cartelón con el rostro de alguna actriz del cine mudo. Mary Pickford tal vez. Es bella, sus ojos brillan
suavemente y con la boca construyen una semisonrisa tiernísima, callada

También nosotros, aquí, somos actores mudos. Tenemos brillos suaves, ternuras sucias de sangre seca como niños, mucho silencio alrededor.

La platea prefiere el film sonoro. ¿Quién hizo esta película? De este lado de la pantalla, el nuestro, se oyen muertos soltando vida de a poquito como un crujir de sueños, los torturados gritan,
crepita gente en la prisión, bajo el estruendo de las botas militares la injusticia es un rugido infernal. Del otro lado, parece que ven pasar fantasmas pálidos y ningún piano los anuncia.

Te amo, Mary Pickford, sé que ahora me amás. Entra el viento y sacude nuestros amores de papel.
Juan Parr Nov 2017
Era una noche gris,
lúgubre y solitaria.
Tal vez como tu mirada,
tal vez como te movías
como el dada
como una actriz.

Bailabas
como si te programaran,
como si te lo ordenaran.
Eras arte y tus piernas lo sabían,
los demás también
pero no entendían
tu concepto.

La sangre coagulada
de una caída,
mantenía la cruz
justo sobre el baúl.
El cuervo analizaba
el movimiento
de tu cuerpo azul,
entre edificaciones mórbidas de cemento.

Deseo de corazón,
corazón de alma,
alma de deseo.
Repetir hasta memorizar.
Ninguna bailarina resultó herida durante la realización de este poema.
You hid it 'cause I can't find it every elsewhere a package for string
this catastrophe that threatens tragedy above the tryst below a fling
With cords knotted tightly around something tumorous I won't sing
It is the chlorine that cancels detergent in that electric washer thing
beneath cellar steps that David Niven's wife fell down while hiding
I lost her you found her, it's a dollar for riding plus a fee for finding
all broads blinded to inequity and to chick Nazis' unguided guiding
Oh Lord with such ease the slippery have slid into slipshod sliding!
The frailties of free men're exploited by N.S.A.'s jingoistic deriding
General Ike exposed the military-industrial-congressional complex
which strikes against the citizenry by venomous rattle snake reflex
faster than a dope-crazy Marilyn Monroe could reach for a Kleenex
thru curvatures in a third-dimensional, spatially-pornographic helix
that approximated the Mexi-milkers of actriz: la doña María Félix
rutting elephants in musth must respect advisory: kneel-harm-****,
to honor the moon-hoaxing memory of chronic liar Neil Armstrong
as obviously for **** Rosie O'Donnell her gay meal alarm's wrong
Johns familiarized themselves with Lillian Russell by buyin' ** Lil
as masochists meet masochistic needs with movies of Ryan O'Neal
Sadists satiate sadistic surges sharing sermons sold Séamus Ó Néill
& beheld-redemptive pleasures for patrons of free mass soul appeal
I'm nailed in my sub-par carpentry by all do-gooders of the nail ban
to the point where I'm willing to mail my big sister to the mail man
who's part & parcel of a mail-fraud plot & brother's can't-fail plan
Escaped & uncaught I will be no prison monkey's cell-mate-jail-fan
'Cause shorts clothe Richard Simmons' lard *** he has a pale can as
oil-from-rock Daniel's been given the pétrole epithet Ol' Shale Dan
Latino block & cinder create distortive Hispano-Américano rubble
'cause stirring up spics & greasy wetbacks invites N.C.L.R. trouble
Stand back anti-pope as I am about to burst your pederastic bubble!
Your egg-shell-thick pate's no match for a black jack as this club'll
smash its way thru cardinals, reverends, ministers, priests & dukes
to make cream taste like ***** and turn cake into what a dog pukes
Under U.S./Euro socialism there'll be no guy who's a young codger
and popular forenames will be banned including Preston and Roger
Trans-national entities whip horse dung into curdled cottage cheese
while denying rescue inhalers to asthmatics enjoying a bad wheeze
so as to avail publicly purpled aureolae of ready women who tease
Now is the time to release the promised South American killer bees
as the hour's passed to exact vengeance for a beheaded Robert Lees
Mafiosos contract that Joseph Valachi-types be capped at the knees
then hanged by their what's-her-names from il duce poles and trees
in such a fashion that'll tighten the ropes by cough, belch or sneeze
Long legs, wrong eggs, strong pegs, King Kong begs with a song of kegs
Let us dog dealers of wieners & corporate schemers: those 2-bit reamers
extend a left leg into the sacred space of my right one for time remaining
It's easy to harp on topics commiserate with crap profitably entertaining
A man who courts dogs & a court manned by dogs quibbles over kibble
Dogs devoid of canine teeth are not as happy to gnaw and to nibble
The Arc of the Covenant bestowed ancient promises metaphysical
shedding cockroach-scattering illumination that set courses tragical
on a populace & citizenry that were more attuned to an era magical
Before Zionistic Elders prepared an Order within cabals strategical
Beneath plum sunsets & catchy maladies that deafened folks lyrical
“Turn me on dead man” the Beatles backwardly warbled mystically
as the means and the method to sexcite vampresses gynecologically
For all shoulder-locked movements sway men anthropomorphically
Let us seek bi-lesbians who fear concerted opposition diametrically
as their prized packages remain barren, as they spawn ineffectually
Sappho's ovarian host pouch is barren as ***** meld ineffectually
as Western, Fallopian-tubed freakazoids are ****-probed habitually
Sapphic ovarian balloons shrink when hens ******* reciprocally
On Pearl Harbor Loch a false flag blackened Mister Moto's beacon
by shadowy, white manipulators under a U.S. sinister, proto-deacon
who, as a cousin-marrying-pipe-******* *******, emulated Lincoln,
the war-loving queer who went above & beyond his task to weaken
the will of sovereign states to sustain free-market economic health,
by exacting confiscatory taxes resulting in punishing capital wealth
The Beatles were creatures of M.K. Ultra's institution at Tavistock,
groomed as constructs to transmogrify youth into an immoral block
lost to a shocking future as shown by Alvin Toffler in Future Shock
whereas nothing can help us from taking an epidemiological knock
by Mao a la Trotsky, a la starvation wages via phony-baloney stock
in the image of Pol *** a la Lenin contrary to righteous John Locke
Our fused-egg brothers gestate together, flying as a migratory flock
dolled up in vestry wardrobe: papal bikini brassier, ******* & frock
awaiting George Orwell's 1984 English socialism known as Ingsoc
X number of years before Nancy Kwan wed ski champ Peter Pock,
& after Bob Ripley's Oriental/Occidental miscegenation ****** talk
as it was curlier than was Nimoy while he portrayed Vulcan Spock,
whose sweetness was unrehearsed, unrestrained & of a sickly mock
once taken, out of time as taken twice daily on any ol' broken clock
flesh stripped & exploited as the flightless relic of Earth's great auk
enjoying the laze of Sunday oblivious to extinct Darwinian schlock
as chastised love is Leonard Nimoy-pitiable with chastity-belt lock
Upon a Massachusettsian shore puritans purified Plymouth's Rock!
Forever amounts to nothing in betrayal of Heinlein's empathic grok
Back off quack as I'll **** the next 1 of you applying scalpel to ****
as a dad must regarding neo-Kantian, fatherless-**** Johann Bach
Deep in hell's bowels fricassees Jew Elizabeth/***-to-Death Taylor
who did every Joe Nobody from Captain Crunch to Norman Mailer
A harlot ***** was she from 10 niggerly toes to scary mulatto tone
as hellishly deep in Liz's brain was a splinter of hamster wish bone
& her ***-end was broad from fat foods Safeway to her would loan
Beneath her 3rd world-chiding heft Larry F's lawn chairs did groan
as this princess of whales never said no to hog jowls and corn pone
which made an interesting cut-out to novices of the porpoise prone
There won't be another Liz till Rockefeller perfects a Warner clone
with the aid of sewing machines to hem-stitch hems that need sewn
& a positronic brain stem to achieve mortality previously unknown
since Alex Bell pilfered **** inventor Antonio Meucci's telephone
Truth is light that Illuminists keep shadowed, darkened & unshown
for Hank & Phoebe Snow and Johnny Winter who would not atone
Thomas Edison stole or bought the patents to ingenious inventions
that he was more than happy to claim as his brilliant contributions
to the wealth & state of inquisitive Mankind's Earthen conventions,
also he took credit for Biblical allusions to immaculate conceptions
Which Bible books Tom Edison wrote no G.E. employee mentions
as stealing, purloining and commandeering were his 3 predilections
True historians know well charlatan Edison's dastardly elaborations
To pinch a hairy, chapped man is wrong as it puts him in more pain
For century-old Harry Chapman Pincher pinching made him insane
His unholy joy was to lay prone with mouth open to catch acid rain
& then hop into the commode to affect a toilet-related ankle sprain,
not too unlike Richard called **** & Jean who liked the name Jane
whose corpulence demands a piano coffin burial with crawler crane
Formaldehyde replaced 7 quarts of blood that went down a drain as
the proverb fits: when there's nothing to lose there's nothing to gain
Alan Ladd snuffed himself over a self-destructive hatred for Shane
and because Sue Carol preferred men of height Ladd couldn't attain
without elevator shoes & leading-lady actresses walking in ditches,
the love-life that humbles a netted shrimp into paralytic twitches as
Alan often got nothing from Brentwood ****** & witches because
****** pimps don't scrape **** off them Hollywood swanky *******
Tragically it's true that God's in the details & Satan's in the glitches
when Hippocratic Oath-denying doctors say don't bandage stitches,
it promotes infection needing treatment that add to a quack's riches
Apply no anti-bacterial salve unless your unbandaged wound itches
Amerika will be a Marxian paradise after we guillotine the snitches
harvest their organs, cremate & consign their ashes to crude niches
Give me, give me, give me, I can subsist not on a mere, single bean
Hey cheapo, get off your greasy ***, take me to Dairy Queen as my
**** is shaved, bra's padded & all kinks are relaxed by Afro Sheen
Western ***** are fattened for slaughter as sloped slants grow lean,
for lack of appendix, tonsils, adenoids, warts, piles, moles & spleen
Refugees flee what's so repressively dangerous that it's forever fled
The bloodied blood biz passes pathogens to bleeders bloodily bled
It is a dreadful situation that ****** folks find difficult not to dread
A gent is obliged to face conflict face first short of living in a shed,
plying the rough trade, rough-necking with ******* or playing dead
When my cruddy teeth are encrusted I brush the crud off with Crest
while working drainward with this golden cake of soap called Zest
Like a woman on public assistance I refuse to let my choppers rest
There was a time when talk of quiz was a precursor to an Iowa test
My basic skills are determinedly under-cutting my housewife guest
whose stems run north to her malignant tissue free mammae breast
In movies shooting orphans with high-powered rifles is done in jest
'cause in Amerika making ammunition is what wage-slaves do best
When I'm not utilizing forks for recreational after-meal dog-jabbin'
I am staking out hog farms for the planning of gainful hog-nabbin'
or making log-planing modifications on my pine-logged log cabin,
before crossing teamster picket lines for wage-earning job scabbin,'
I take pains to avoid being skinned in a Jimmy Hoffa mob stabbin'
A thousand Confucian truths drive my happy dreams to nightmares
as bi-****** pass out on Calexico-Mexicali-low-calorie light beers
I haven't the moxie to skate through hydrants of fate terminological
as those 78 crumb-bums behind T.V. “comedies” wax scatological
Ernie killed Chip & Robby to stamp his father a cipher biological
He hadn't room for women for production smacking gynecological
The last time he looked skyward his thoughts weren't cosmological
S.O.B. Ernest cursed routinely at arthritis diagnosed gerontological
He gives not a harlot's hello for innumerable faults anthropological
nor to lend his energies to scopes that abuse harmonics hormonical
as he stumblingly falls prey to meanderings sickishly trophological
Lord of Hostesses salvage carcass mine from insults cancrological
Redeem me in sudden form humanoid of activities pathogenetical
We mourn in Gettysburg's city as unrepentant lesbians on probation
Defying errors inflicted upon soldiers who forsook proper vocation
Anti-poping Argentine Francis as he's ****** to Satan's invocation
It remains the best course to abide by stellar laws of spatial rotation
Whether one's nationality is Romanian, Finnish, British or Croatian
Lost people will eat food outside their region & of course: location
They'll surely theorize on arcana that's weakly deemed postulation
Worshiping Sunday is as heathenish as a Roman Catholic sunburst
Be better, be worse, be it ham fatted on toast or mayo in liverwurst
F.E.M.A.'s big plan to ****** 200 million citizens is planned first
Our fate is the guillotine & Chinese torture for we who are cursed
Beneath a deluge of a radioactive Pacific California'll be immersed
as Fukushima's boiling cooling towers are centrally timed to burst
Save it untainted as radiological-free water is better to slake thirst
For it's less desirable to be formula bottle-fed than it is to be nursed
January 14, 1957 : 57 years ago today Humphrey Bogart died at 57
His engine has stopped, his gas pedal is capable of no more revvin'
